Okay, so I promised you girls that I was going to work on a PJ so her goes
My story with DF
Easter in the year of 2003 changed my life forever. It was like any other holiday for me. I occupied the days celebration with my god daughter. After the egg hunt and all the goodies, I went home to my newly purchased condo where I lived alone. I was 27 years old and single of course. It was night time and I remember I was eating a snack and watching tv when my mom called and it went something like this
Mom: Mija, I was at church praying to the Virgin Mary for you.
Mami: Why, mom?
Mom: I was praying that she send you a good man. A husband that would make you happy.
Mami: Ay, mom. Im fine the way that I am.
Mom: No mija, but then I had a thought. Like the Virgin Mary was talking to me.
Mami: What mom?
Mom: Maybe god hasnt sent you a partner in life because he has different plans for you. Maybe he wants you to serve god.
Mami: Uh, what?
Mom: Yes, maybe he wants you to serve god and help people and so he has not sent you someone because its not your time.
Mami: So, are you telling me god has other plans for me and he wants me to be like a nun or something?
Mom: Not a nun but someone who serves him somehow.
Mami: Uh, I dont think so. I have no intention of becoming a nun (and I was thinking in my head... being celibate for the rest of my life). Hell No!!!! ( BTW, I had been a catechism teacher for a few years and use to do the readings at church as I was growing up. I did my duty )
Mom: Ay, mija. Dont get mad. I was just telling you what happened.
Mami: Well, dont tell me that s%$#@. Im not going to be a nun.
No offense to nuns. God bless but I know it is not for me.
So what do you think girls? How would you react to your mom saying that to you?
BTW, sorry in advance for my spanglish. It is bound to come out.
